Over the past few decades, European countries have witnessed a
proliferation of legal norms concerning marginalised individuals
and minorities who increasingly invoke them in front of courts to
assert their rights and claim protection. The present volume
explores the relationship between law, rights and social
mobilisation in Europe. It specifically enquires into the extent
and ways in which legal processes and entitlements are mobilised by
less privileged social actors to advance their rights claims and
pursue social change. Most distinctly, it explores such processes
in the context of the multi-level European system, characterised by
the existence of multiple legal and judicial arenas at the
national, subnational and supranational/transnational level. In
such a complex system of law and governance in Europe, concepts
like legal opportunity structures, as well as the factors shaping
them need to be reconceptualised. How does the multi-level European
context distinctly shape the nature and salience of rights, as well
as their mobilisation by individuals and minority actors?
